DG: Were you starting to pack and what did you have to do?

KS: We had to pack all of our stuff. We were told we could carry one duffel bag per person so into one duffel bag went some bedding and our clothes. Then the other duffel bag took our books and some of our precious things, a few wedding presents that we got. Oh gosh, fortunately most of our wedding presents were like ten dollar bills, which was nice. But a few little trinkets like clocks and dishes and plates and things like that that just couldn't give them away or throw them away! [Laughs] I'd pack them in the duffel bag in between towels and sheets and things.

TS: Into Area B.

KS: Into Area B in Puyallup.

DG: So did you drive there?

KS: I think his brother, Hippo had somebody drive us there, who had a truck.

TS: I don't remember whether it was on our farm truck or what.

KS: Some of their friends in Fife took us down to Puyallup. We weren't, didn't have to do the indignity of going down to the King Street Station and packed into trains! [Laughs]
